The campaign supporting a November referendum to allow same-sex couples to marry in Maine has announced that a new television ad will begin airing statewide Tuesday. The ad features Pat and Dan Lawson of Monroe talking about why allowing same-sex couples to marry is important to their family, according to a press release issued Tuesday by Mainers United for Marriage. The ad, which was developed through the Why Marriage Matters Maine Project, a broad network of organizations supporting the freedom to marry in Maine, is being paid for by Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders, a New England-based organization with offices in Portland and Boston, the press release said.
